Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone has a good day!
I'm all about the turkey, pumpkin pie and family. It's time to start cooking.
Thanksgiving day---yes
National day of mourning----I like the idea of mourning on only one day a year, but it turns out that isn't what it means:
The organizers of National Day of Mourning consider Thanksgiving Day as a continued reminder of the democide (Democide is a term revived and redefined by the political scientist R. J. Rummel (1932–2014) as "the murder of any person or people by their government, including genocide, politicide (The social scientists Barbara Harff and Ted R. Gurr uses policide to describe the killing of groups of people who are targeted not because of shared ethnic or communal traits...., but because of "their hierarchical position or political opposition to the regime and dominant groups and mass murder"---Wikipedia). And suffering of Native American people. Since 1970, participants in the National Day of Mourning have honored Native ancestors and their struggles to survive today.
